Principally I believe it is more a problem of management at TOYOTA not drivers. They are 2nd rate in F1 terms but you only have a very few of 1st rate, dont you - at the moment FA,KR closely followed by FM and JB.

RALF would rather win against JARNO I think so why is he getting the bashing here?

I voted for podiums only however because winning for TOYOTA will be hard this year:

3 teams will win: FERRARI, MCLAREN and RENAULT(in that order!)

1 team will be close and eventually win: HONDA

2 teams for the occasional podium: BMW and TOYOTA

1 team to score some points: RBR

4 teams lucky to score, no podiums possible

Thanks Julian,

actually I forgot WILLIAMS who should be on par with RBR....

I know you would like MARK to achieve greater things but I think he is still not in a great car, I dont expect to much from the fact they captured AN...

Do you expect MARK to score more points than RALF?

Agree. The RBRs are getting better every day. They should be able to beat the Toyotas.
